A vast majority of items are produced from only minerals within this game, but how does this work?

How could you make Nuclear or Depleted Uranium ammo with just the minerals and not including any radioactive elements?

Tritanium is the most commonly used mineral in the entire game, yet it is highly volatile and unstable at standard conditions which stations typically have to suit human living requirements.

How does a ship composed majority of tritanium be able withstand mini-nuclear and antimattar explosions and being heating to over 6000 degrees Celsius by lasers?


Pure sodium will explode in water.

Chlorine gas is toxic and will kill you rather quickly.

We ingest Sodium Chloride all the time, and our bodies are full of water.

I wonder what magic keeps us from exploding or dying when this happens.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.
